Back by popular demand is our series of posts here at Jessica Who?, titled “Word of the Week”. In these short articles, published most Fridays, we explore the various labels and umbrella terms used to label us. By doing this, I hope to educate not only myself, but also anyone who may not be familiar with these terms. Feel free to add your own knowledge to each post by leaving a comment 
.
The label that we will be examining this week is: FTM
Standard Definition
There is no “official” definition
Derogatory?
Nope
What’s It Really Mean?
Female to Male
My Take
We don’t often talk about FTM cross-dressers or transsexuals but they do exist and I often become very interested if I happen across a blog or vlog of someone who is FTM.
The Southern Comfort Conference in Atlanta is particularly welcoming to transmen, in case you weren’t aware.
Your Take
Have you anything to add? Please leave your take on this word in the comments section, I hope we can open up a dialogue and learn from each other while educating the masses.

My take is that more than 90% of the American women are already
exhibiting FTM action by wearing pants. That’s OK with me.
I wish MTF action was more acceptable by the general public
I was amazed at the number of FTMs there are. On one web site that I’m a member there are a huge number of young girls looking for advice and those that are really depressed in their attempts to pass, even in school the problems encountered with students and staff. We can all relate. I have no idea as to what descriptive word that could be used. Most I come up with are used to describe us.
